iRule that can disable node

The only real way to do this via iRules would be to insert a check on every new connection to the VIP that checked the status of the primary node and acted accordingly. It sounds like this would be a task better suited to either iControl or a custom monitor that would monitor the primary node and take the secondary node down if it were up.

 

 

If you don't mind the overhead, though, it could be done with an iRule using something like the LB::status command in the clientside context.
